Restaurante Azul Pool Grill

Reviewed By ShayneU

Everyday from 5-6 pm we enjoyed Happy Hour at the Azul Pool Grill. Prior to that we had amazing servers, Frank, and Joseph around the poo who kept us fed and hydrated. One of our favorites around the pool were the Chicken Wings. Pass on the Nachos, not good. Service was both friendly and attentive. That's why we love Costa Rica!!

Absolutely one of a kind- you must treat yourself to this exquisite wonderful dining experience by two fabulous chefs, Camille and Pascal!! We rented a home in Costa Rica, in the Playa Negra area with two other families and had Camille and Pascal fix breakfast and dinners for us almost every day- in reading reviews of the home we rented everyone said they wished they had used them more, so we did. Food- fabulous, Chefs- magnificent. Truly hospitable, knowledgeable, kind, tremendous eating!

Hadn't been here in years, so thought a return was in order. Since today is new years' eve,crowd was pretty light for lunch as everyone is planning for their parties!Well, although we were too early for either pizza or papas, we opted for a casado and some ceviche. Both were fresh and delivered fast - and the pickled veggies on the table added just the right amount of fire to our palates too!I'll try to get back for a pizza review later this week, but our lunch was spot-on. Only complaint was no wifi - but we weren't there for that anyway.

If your staying at the JW Marriott in Guanacaste I highly recommend taking a walk on the beach (during low tide) to Lola’s for lunch. The food was great and the staff was awesome. The views were also spectacular

This was an incredible experience! Not only do you get a unique and delicious meal made in front of you while you relax, Noam also provides excellent conversation. Take the time to appreciate both the fine dining (each dish with a story and made from local ingredients, including from Noam’s own garden), but also Noam’s life story in general. You won’t regret it!Thank you Kate for being my first dinner of the low season: the two of you are so loving, and kind and fun. I had such a wonderful evening.

Cafe Playa Negra

Great food and prices for the adventurous that want to try the energizing peruvian ceviche or for the most conservative that want a fine Tuna steak or a good hamburguer. Open for breakfast, lunch & dinner. Surf videos, bar and great music.

Was there during World Cup this year....very good service, drinks and food. Enjoyed relaxing out of the sun with a cold one! The meals were very good, esp the fresh fish plates. Very nice smoothies too. A very nice setting to watch the waves and surfers. Friendly and helpful staff everytime.

Restaurante Lochito's

Reviewed By kurttj

Just returned from Junquillal and had the pleasure of eating at Lochito's 3 times during our two week stay. Lochito's is hands down the best restaurant in Junquillal which is saying something because all the restaurants are great. Their seafood offerings are tremendous, there salads and vegetable pairing are fresh, crisp and incredibly flavorful. I've reviewed Lochito's before and nothing has changed. Great open air atmosphere, clean, wonderful staff, great food, cold beverages and great prices. Two entrees, two glasses of wine each and a bill of around $40. If you are in Junquillal simply go here often. We would have eaten here more but were intent on venturing out to other restaurants(and weren't disappointed) but at the end of the day Lochito's is still our favorite for seafood as well as their beef and chicken offerings. Can't wait to go back!!!!

Mundo Milo

Reviewed By Lisa S

The charming Mundo Milo is tucked 1 minute up a sleepy side road just as you approach Junquillal Beach. The setting is lovely, with candle-lit tables surrounded by tropical vegetation. We had white fish with coconut curry and mixed seafood pasta. Both were excellent. The service was gracious and the prices reasonable. We would definitely recommend Mundo Milo and hope to return soon.

If you are looking for a fresh cooked to order breakfast served by the nicest family look no further than Jalapenos. Mike and his wife made us feel like part of their family while sitting outside in the cutest garden.The burritos were amazing. They were huge and delicious and filled us up till dinner time.If the setting and food weren't enough they invited us behind the restaurant to see and hand feed their chickens.
